2-BedroomBuilding Summary & Rental Market Overview
Rental market analytics and building profile as of August 31, 2026.
Skyscape at 68 Grangeway Ave in Scarborough City Centre is a 228-suite residential tower developed by Conservatory Group and completed in 2008. As of August 31, 2026, the building is fully occupied with zero units currently listed for rent, representing a 0 percent availability rate. Leasing activity remains modest but present: one lease closed in the trailing 30 days at an average of $2,700 per month with a four-day time to lease, while the broader 90-day window recorded 11 closed leases averaging $2,614 per month and a 37-day average days on market.
With no active asking rents to benchmark, the most recent realized data shows Skyscape leasing at an average of $2,581 per month and $3.28 per square foot across tracked transactions, with an average suite footprint of 788 square feet. That realized rate per square foot sits 2.9 percent below the Scarborough City Centre submarket lease benchmark of $3.39 per square foot, while the 90-day average rent of $2,614 per month compares to a submarket asking benchmark of $2,480 per month. The building's slightly larger average footprint relative to the submarket implied asking size of 747 square feet helps explain why nominal rents land above the submarket asking average even as the per-square-foot rate trades at a modest discount.
Marketing friction cannot be assessed on an active-listing basis given zero available units, but the 90-day closed-lease average of 37 days on market exceeds the submarket benchmark of 28 days, suggesting a mild leasing deceleration relative to the broader Scarborough City Centre market. Across all tracked historical leases, tenants negotiated an average concession of $69 per month, or 2.4 percent below asking, with 46.2 percent of closed transactions landing under the initial ask and saving renters approximately $828 per year. Because no units are currently on the market, prospective renters should monitor the building for new listings and simultaneously evaluate the 77 active listings available across the wider Scarborough City Centre submarket.

Leased Transaction Insights & Questions
How many suites were leased at Skyscape last month, and how fast did they rent?
Skyscape at 68 Grangeway Ave closed one lease in the trailing 30 days with a 4-day DOM, compared to a 37-day average across the 90-day window and a submarket benchmark of 28 days. The building recorded 11 closings over the past 90 days and 13 lifetime leases, indicating leasing activity accelerated sharply in July before tapering to a single August transaction. Turnover moderated from the mid-summer surge rather than pausing entirely, with the 30-day DOM of 4 days well below both the building's 90-day average and the submarket norm.
What is the negotiation spread between asking rents and closed lease prices at Skyscape?
Skyscape tenants negotiated an average discount of $69 per month (2.4% below asking), translating to $828 in annual savings per lease. Across the 13 tracked transactions, 46.2% of leases closed under the listed asking price, confirming consistent tenant leverage and landlord concession on pricing. The net negotiation spread of -$69 per month reflects a tenant-favorable market where landlords absorbed modest reductions to close deals rather than hold firm at sticker.
What are typical executed lease prices across different layouts at Skyscape?
The 2-Bedroom layout anchors Skyscape's leasing volume with 6 closed leases averaging $2,675 per month and a 35-day DOM, while the 2-Bedroom + Den tier follows with 3 closings at $2,883 per month and a 37-day DOM. The 1-Bedroom tier recorded 3 leases at an average of $2,150 per month (median $2,150, P25–P75 range $2,125–$2,175), averaging 650 square feet at $3.31 per square foot with a 38-day DOM; this is a limited sample size and serves as a directional indicator only. The 2-Bedroom + Den tier's 3 leases (median $2,900, P25–P75 range $2,875–$2,900) span 850 square feet at $3.39 per square foot with a 37-day DOM, also a small sample for directional reference. The 1-Bedroom + Den tier represents an individual single transaction: one lease at $2,400 per month across 750 square feet ($3.20 per square foot) with a 12-day DOM, and should not be treated as a broad statistical benchmark.
What measurable rent premium did suites with parking achieve in closed leases at Skyscape?
Skyscape's realized leased parking premium cannot be isolated due to insufficient paired data linking specific suites to parking assignments. No verified parking fee recovery is available across the 13 tracked leases, and active asking parking rates are similarly unreliable given outlier or sample-size constraints. Tenants and landlords at this building should treat parking as a bundled or negotiable component rather than a separately priced line item in current market conditions.
How does the lease-to-listing ratio at Skyscape reflect current tenant demand?
Skyscape rents climbed from $2,400 in May to $2,700 by July and held at that level through August, marking a clear upward trajectory across the tracked spring-to-summer timeline. May closed 2 deals at $2,400 per month ($3.22 per square foot, 19-day DOM). June recorded 3 closings at $2,383 per month with a higher rate of $3.32 per square foot and a 19-day DOM; the nominal rent dip reflects compact suite footprints rather than property devaluation. July surged to 7 deals at $2,700 per month ($3.29 per square foot) but carried a 50-day DOM, indicating longer marketing periods despite volume. August closed 1 lease at $2,700 per month ($3.18 per square foot, 4-day DOM), where the lower per-square-foot rate signals larger suite mix rather than a pricing retreat.

12-Month Market Dynamics & Trend Trajectory
Skyscape's average realized rent of $2,581 per month sits 5.4% above the Scarborough City Centre submarket average of $2,449, while its $3.28 per square foot rate trades 2.9% below the submarket leased benchmark of $3.39 per square foot. This combination—higher nominal rent but a lower density-adjusted rate—indicates the building's larger average suite footprint (788 square feet) commands a premium in absolute dollars without overcharging on a per-square-foot basis relative to neighbouring inventory. On pricing discipline, 46.2% of Skyscape's 13 tracked leases closed below asking, with tenants securing an average $69 per month (2.4%) discount that equates to $828 in annual savings per lease. The net negotiation spread of -$69 per month confirms a tenant-favorable dynamic where landlords conceded on price to close transactions rather than hold at sticker. This concession pattern is consistent across the moderate 2-Bedroom sample and the smaller 1-Bedroom and Den-tier cohorts, suggesting the discount is structural to the building's positioning rather than an outlier in any single layout.

Nearby Building Rental Comparables & Price Spreads
Direct rental rate comparisons against residential properties in the immediate vicinity.
Skyscape at 68 Grangeway Ave sits in a dense cluster of four active competitors within 400 metres, all of which recorded closed lease transactions over the trailing 180 days. The nearest peer, Altitude at 88 Grangeway Ave (0.05 km, built in 2013), logged 10 closed leases; Forest Vista at 61 Town Centre Crt (0.26 km, built in 2002) recorded 5; Centro – South Tower at 190 Borough Dr (0.37 km, built in 2011) closed 25; and Centro – North Tower at 25 Town Centre Crt (0.40 km, also built in 2011) closed 29. The competitive set spans three construction eras—Forest Vista anchors the early-2000s cohort, Skyscape and the Centro towers occupy the 2008–2011 window, and Altitude represents the most recent build at 2013—giving renters a clear generational spread in unit layouts, building systems, and amenity depth within a single walking radius. Against the four-comp benchmark of $2,534 average rent, $3.13 per square foot, and 835 square feet of average suite size, Skyscape's realized lease metrics of $2,581 per month and $3.28 per square foot across a 788-square-foot average footprint position the building at a modest rate premium while offering roughly 47 fewer square feet than the comp mean. The building's 2008 completion places it mid-pack in age, and its 228-suite scale sits between the smaller Centro towers and the larger Altitude, making it a mid-volume asset in a pocket where the submarket average lease rent of $2,449 and $3.39 per square foot suggest Skyscape trades slightly below the broader Scarborough City Centre rate but above its immediate four-building peer group on a per-square-foot basis.
Comparable Analysis & Questions
How do rental rates at Skyscape compare to neighbouring buildings within Scarborough City Centre?
Skyscape's average realized lease rent of $2,581 per month sits $47 above the four-comp benchmark of $2,534, driven primarily by its premium positioning against the two Centro towers while trading marginally below Altitude and Forest Vista. Altitude at 88 Grangeway Ave (0.05 km, 10 closed leases) averaged $2,605 per month at $2.96 per square foot across 895 square feet, meaning Skyscape's rent runs $24 lower despite a higher per-square-foot rate. Forest Vista at 61 Town Centre Crt (0.26 km, 5 closed leases) averaged $2,600 per month at $3.06 per square foot over 864 square feet, placing Skyscape $19 below that figure. Centro – South Tower at 190 Borough Dr (0.37 km, 25 closed leases) averaged $2,403 per month at $3.28 per square foot across 767 square feet, so Skyscape commands $178 more per month. Centro – North Tower at 25 Town Centre Crt (0.40 km, 29 closed leases) averaged $2,526 per month at $3.23 per square foot over 813 square feet, with Skyscape's rent $55 higher. All four competitors recorded active lease volume, so no zero-transaction reference buildings dilute this comparison.
Does Skyscape offer a competitive price-per-square-foot ($/SF) against local comparables?
Skyscape leases at $3.28 per square foot across a 788-square-foot average suite, commanding a rate premium over three of its four nearby competitors while offering a smaller interior footprint than two of them. Against Altitude (0.05 km), Skyscape trades at a $0.32 per square foot (10.8%) premium yet provides 107 fewer interior square feet; the $24 lower nominal rent is entirely a function of that reduced footprint rather than a weaker rate, so renters gain a tighter, more efficient layout at a higher per-square-foot cost. Forest Vista (0.26 km) shows the same pattern: Skyscape commands a $0.22 per square foot (7.2%) premium while delivering 76 fewer square feet, and the $19 rent gap again reflects the smaller suite rather than a discount in asset value. Centro – South Tower (0.37 km) presents the inverse trade-off—identical $3.28 per square foot parity—but Skyscape provides 21 more interior square feet, which explains the $178 higher monthly rent as a pure space premium at the same rate. Centro – North Tower (0.40 km) carries a slight $0.05 per square foot (1.5%) premium for Skyscape alongside 25 fewer square feet, so the $55 rent increase is rate-driven despite the tighter footprint, signalling that tenants in this pocket accept a modest per-square-foot uplift for Skyscape's amenity package and 2008 building systems over the 2011 Centro product.
How do building age, amenities, and developer reputation impact rent spreads?
Skyscape offers a ten-item lifestyle suite anchored by an indoor pool, sauna and steam room, gym, putting green, garden and courtyard, and a full set of social and remote-work spaces, positioning it as a mid-tier amenity building that trails its nearest peers on rooftop and spa features but leads three of four competitors on outdoor recreation. The putting green is the building's signature differentiator: Forest Vista (0.26 km), Centro – South Tower (0.37 km), and Centro – North Tower (0.40 km) all omit it, while only Altitude (0.05 km) matches the feature with its own putting greens. Conversely, Skyscape lacks the rooftop terrace found at all four competitors, the hot tub and jacuzzi at Altitude and Centro – South Tower, the BBQ areas at both Centro towers, and the spa, clubhouse, and prayer room at Forest Vista. The aquatic and wellness core—indoor pool paired with sauna and steam room—is shared across the entire peer set, so Skyscape's competitive edge rests on the putting green combined with the garden and courtyard for outdoor leisure, a package that best serves active young professionals and small families in Scarborough City Centre who prioritize ground-level recreation, fitness, and social gathering spaces over rooftop luxury or spa-grade wellness facilities.

- Point-in-Time Daily History: Daily charts capture point-in-time active listings available on any given calendar day.
Public Data Aggregation & Thresholds
- Public Data Aggregation: FastScreen aggregates residential rental listing and completed lease transaction records from publicly available sources.
- Threshold Filtering: All listings are subject to a minimum monthly rental threshold of $1,000 to filter out standalone storage lockers, private parking spaces, and misclassified commercial entries from condominium statistics.
Calculation Formulations
- Average Asking Rent: Weighted average of active asking prices across available suites in the reporting period.
- Price Per Square Foot ($/SF): Calculated by dividing rent by square footage only for listings that provide unit dimensions (suites without stated square footage are excluded from $/SF calculations).
- Days on Market (DOM): Measures elapsed calendar days between the date a suite is first listed and either the benchmark snapshot date (for active listings) or the finalized date leased.
- Parking & Den Differentials: Average asking rent differences between suites with vs. without parking, and suites with vs. without a den.
Data Limitations & Scope
- Exclusively Public Records: Statistics are derived exclusively from publicly available rental listings and completed lease records. Private direct-to-landlord arrangements, unadvertised tenant renewals, and off-market rental agreements are not captured.
- Agreed Contract Amounts: Reported lease amounts reflect agreed contract rents and do not account for private move-in allowances or individual unit renovations that may influence pricing spreads.
